Default Common upgrades

Hello everyone I have a C-230 kompressor coupe and I was wondering what are some common visual/engine modifications that are commonly done with these cars? I'd like to do a few little things but not get too crazy with it. Thanks.

Bump. I'm really having trouble finding anything for this car. This is my first time dealing with a Mercedes and I'm not too familiar with the aftermarket for it. I'm looking to stay within bolt-ons, exhaust, chip, intake, etc... Also maybe a few visual modifications. Again, any help would be appreciated.

leave it stock there is nothing worse that somebody that goes and starts buying aftermarket junk. aftermarket parts cause problems with these cars. if you want more power buy a v8

I have had V8's before. I've had two 5.0 Mustangs and a 99 WS6 Trans Am. My last car was a 97 Eclipse GSX. I don't want a V8 for two reasons. 1. Gas is too expensive. 2. Most of them are American pieces of junk. What cars are you talking about when you are reffering to aftermarket parts causing problems? C230's? Do you really think that the number of cylinders has anything do to with power anyways? There are plenty of close-to-stock 4 cylinder cars that run 12 second quarter miles. And some of the fastest drag cars in the world are 4 cylinders. But anyways, I just wanted someone to point me in the right direction for parts. Not someone to give me their opinion on whether or not I should keep MY OWN car stock.
